Critical Build Plan

We started on an historic development of our site in early 2022 with the expansion of the Sixth Form Centre. Phase two, which is currently underway, is the renovation of our off-site sports facility in Raynes Park. The new Astroturf, cricket nets and hard courts will be used extensively by pupils and the community throughout the year, enabling us to increase the provision of hockey, netball, football, cricket and tennis. Following on from this, we will improve our facilities for the sciences, the creative and performing arts and day-to-day school life.

These additional facilities will enhance our overall educational offering, further our award-winning outreach initiatives and ensure we meet the needs of pupils today and for generations to come.

Sixth Form Centre

Expansion of the Sixth Form Centre has provided a 50% increase in space. The pupils now benefit from a modern and spacious learning environment with flexible social spaces, improved café, assembly space and study areas. The extended space creates a cohesive community of Sixth Formers who will have the ability to work collaboratively or independently, network and socialise, as well as regularly access careers advice.

On the ground floor, the large and flexible contemporary space can be used to host events such as our prestigious Goddard Lecture series or careers networking evenings. Upstairs, a lightfilled common room offers relaxed seating overlooking the pitches as well as ‘pods’ for collaborative working. Adjoining this are deskfilled rooms for quiet study. The second floor has additional study environments as well as a conference room.

Completed: Autumn 2022

Off-Site Sports Facilities

Renovation of our 12.5 acre off-site sports facility in Raynes Park is underway. It will enhance opportunities for both girls and boys while providing a home venue for hockey for the first time in our history. The improvements include a new all-weather pitch and modern pavilion with warm-up facilities and changing rooms, as well as12 cricket wickets and four hard courts for tennis. Sport is an integral part of the culture and Emanuel hopes this space becomes a focal point for our pupils and spectators as well as significantly enhancing our community initiative opportunities.

We aim to be the top co-educational school for sport in southwest London and to build on recent successes at national and regional level across our sports.
